{FAQ}: Germany Week 2012

* What is the minimum level required for this Event?

* How can I access the event?

From Level 2+ you'll be able to see the Event Place in front of the Farmers Society:

* What is special about this Event?

There will be a two special Event Crops:

Sauerkraut

Time: 5 hours

EP (2x2): 36 EP

Plant category: "Event"
Can be grown on all lands starting by level 2 (including Bahamarama)

Boiled potatoes

Time: 5 hours

EP (2x2): 36 EP

Plant category: "Event"
Can be grown on all lands starting by level 2 (including Bahamarama)

All players level 2+ will get 10 seeds of each event plant at the beginning of the Event. They will not be in the Seed Shops, nor will they be buyable/sellable at the market. If you drop down to less than 5 seeds, you'll need to wait for the automatic replenishment every 5-6 hours.

The Event requires Sailor Hats that will appear when you harvest any of your lands, any of your crops/trees/animals, including Bahamarama (level 2+):

Gifts are possible as usual: sending up to 5 (7 with rune), getting up to 20. If all free-gifts were used it will cost the same price as you would pay in the shop.

You'll see how many you have collected in your Barn under "Other".

Another type of drop item (not required in the donation layer):

Chocolate syrup

Although Chocolate syrup will not be directly needed in the Event Window, it will be useful during this Event!

Chocolate syrup can be used to spray your crops!
When a crop is sprayed with this chocolate syrup, it will reduce growing time by 10%
You can apply it either by clicking the special Chocolate syrup button on the individual crop pop-up to apply it to individual plots, similarly to adding water, super-grow, manure:

or also, from the Machinery For FREE. This will allow you to spray as many crops as you have enough Chocolate syrup for.

The chocolate syrup can also be purchased from the Shopping Center:

Chocolate syrup packages:

5 Chocolate syrup: 1 BB

25 Chocolate syrup: 4 BB

100 Chocolate syrup: 15 BB

200 Chocolate syrup: 27 BB

Please note that the chocolate syrup is not giftable!

* How do we interact with the Event?

After accessing the event place in front of the Farmer's Society, you'll see this Quest Layout:

* What are each of the parts of this Quest pop-up?This is a 3-sided Quest:

It is strongly recommended to wait until nearly the end of the Event to donate your sailor hats, once you've filled up a maximum of Sauerkraut and Boiled potatoes (but don't wait until the last minutes!!!) This will give you a maximum of EPs and CCs per sailor hats tossed into the event
